Mumbai cop ‘assault’: Arnab Goswami’s pre-arrest bail plea adjourned to Nov 23

A sessions court here has adjourned till November 23 the hearing into the pre-arrest bail plea of Republic TV Editor-in-Chief Arnab Goswami and his wife in a case registered against them by Mumbai Police for allegedly assaulting a woman police officer.

Their lawyer Shyam Kalyankar said the plea could not be heard on Thursday as the judge did not preside.

“The anticipatory bail plea of Goswami and his wife was simply adjourned till November 23,” he said.

“We did not seek any interim protection from arrest today as we are waiting for the detailed order of the Supreme Court (passed on Wednesday granting bail to Goswami in another matter),” Kalyankar said.
